In the shelter’s words
This dog is available to meet by appointment only. Quinn is a 10-pound Maltese mix who appears to have had a difficult start in life. He is learning to trust familiar people and now approaches favorite volunteers for attention, puts his paws in their laps, enjoys being petted, and likes being carried. With less familiar people, he may snap when approached or handled, and his responses can be unpredictable. Because he can be unpredictable, Quinn will need a very experienced adopter who understands canine behavior, can recognize and respect his boundaries, and will give him the time and space he needs to build trust at his own pace. Quinn deserves someone willing to look beyond his rough beginnings and champion a little dog who needs extra understanding, patience, and care. Quinn requires regular grooming to maintain his health and comfort and may need sedation for grooming. Adopters should be prepared for the additional time, care, and expense involved. Quinn is available for adoption by appointment only Please submit an adoption questionnaire to meet him.
